in reply to how to access the commandline arguments?

If you read Learning Perl (by merlyn), you would find that the @ARGV array contains the arguments from the commandline. Additionally, Getopt::Long is part of the Perl core. I would strongly recommend learning it, if you plan on doing shell programs.
